Location: Alpine Meadows, Lake Tahoe West Shore CA, Lake Tahoe California, California, USA (1 mile to Alpine Meadows Resort, 5 miles to Squaw Valley,) View Map
Accommodations: Large House, 5 Bedrooms + Loft + Den, 4 Baths (Sleeps 14)
Winter and Summer.....Escape from it all in this 5 bedroom, 4 bath cabin located in pristine and exclusive Bear Creek, one mile mile below Alpine Meadows Ski Resort. The home's modern lay-out boasts two stories of glass windows with views of the slopes in the winter and of our private swimming pond in the summer. Surrounded by open meadows and solitude yet close to everything, this cabin is a family reunion/retreat destination like no other.
The game cup-board contains practically every game ever made, and the large sunken living-room and open-hearth fire place allow for families and friends to gather effortlessly.
Beat the traffic in the winter, with a one minute drive to the slopes, or cross country ski and make snowmen in the untouched snow off the back deck. If you dare, adventure one mile down the road to our local "E" ticket sledding hill. Cold temps but low snow year? No problem. Bear Creek's pond transforms into a private old-fashioned skating pond. Bring some skates, ear-muffs, and your hockey stick and enjoy skating with no driving, nor admission price!
In summer, stroll out on to the deck and find yourself steps away from the same private swimming pond with its' own sandy beach, Huck-Finn style rafts, and "rock islands" to sunbathe on. You may never want to leave, but if you do the famous Five-Lakes trail-head is across the street, as are many many mountain bike trails. Two miles down the road find fine dining at the River Ranch, as well as Tahoe's best Horse-back riding stables, rafting on the Truckee River and the worlds most beautiful bike-path which runs along the Truckee River and leads you to beautiful Lake Tahoe and Tahoe City.
Winter or Summer, this cabin gives you access to the best that Tahoe has to offer. It is the perfect cabin for a single-family retreat or a large family get-away. Whether you are looking for adventure or solitude this house has it all.
